Since the moment your clumsy little baby body waddled around the day we adopted you, we loved you. You were a friend, a companion and a very appreciative and loyal receiver of good snacks. We nurtured you with love when nature seemed to want to destroy you. Your soft demeanor and gentle nature made you invade the coldest of hearts with ease. Your acceptance of love was only outdone by the unconditional way that you shared it. With all the pain you must have endured and never shown, you taught us all that love is the only real analgesic. Your cage of blood, flesh and bone may be gone, but the love that you shared will forever live on in our hearts. I will fondly remember the joy when I rubbed your ears and the small sigh of approval that you were indeed savoring the bond that we shared. With delight I will look back upon your funny antics that made us smile and laugh. Rest well old friend and be at peace, within that peace I will find your memory, hold it and cherish it. May that memory fill this void.
